Skipper

Description:

A beautiful little Skipper with brown and silverish markings on the underwings. The upper wings are dark brown with some white spots. The upper thorax has blue hair. About 2 cm long. Family Hesperiidae. This looks like Zestusa dorus, but the edges of the upper wings are not banded so I am not sure (http://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/speci...).

Habitat:

Came to lights in the window at night. San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.
